Why all this stuff about "high pass filters" and such. You are dealing with
a spot frequency, not a band of frequencies. A simple parallel resonant
notch filter should do the job quite nicely and still pass everything from
DC to daylight except that spot frequency.


Hi Jim

There's not much more effort in completely covering a band of problems
with a band reject (high pass) filter. The original poster could
discover the NEXT broadcaster creating problems when he limited his
suppression to the first one. Who needs a chain of notch filters when
one would work as well for the entire band?
